One good reason to move your business online
To get more customers – duh!
But there are many other ways to get more customers – right?
1. You can advertise on TV – that is, if you have megabucks
2. You can advertise in newspapers and magazines – still very expensive
3. You can beat the pavements – time consuming and expensive
4. You can cold call on the telephone and risk annoying potential customers
5. You can distribute flyers – mostly ending up in the trash can – hopefully to be re-cycled
6. You can wait for customers to notice you
7. You may have a significant customer base – but you need to grow.
Why you should have your own web presence
1. So customers can find you – 24/7
2. So you can tap into 25 million web users in South Africa – and billions in the world
3. So customers see you as professional and significant – what business worth its salt doesn’t have a website?
4. So you can save yourself a load of money by doing away with outdated, time-consuming and expensive ways to find customers
5. So you can get your message across – effectively and up-to-date
6. So you can look better than your top competitor who has a website (or not)
7. So you can send a client to your website – far more effective than a business card.
How do I go about getting and maintaining an effective web presence?
1. You need a really good designer (unless you have what it takes)
2. You need someone to look after the tech (unless you’re a geek)
3. You need someone whose going to be around in your hour of need
4. You need someone who can help you get people to visit your website
5. You need someone who takes the time to understand your business
6. You need someone to do all of this at an affordable cost
